USRA Hobby Stocks Info for 2018
January 24, 2018
USRA Hobby Stock drivers, here is some helpful information about the 2018 racing season at the Hamilton County Speedway...
If you raced at the Hamilton County Speedway in 2017 you are 100% legal to race here in 2018. Several drivers that raced at Mason City last year raced at Britt or Webster City and did very good with the same car. The biggest difference is that USRA has a weight rule and allow a floater rear end. The floater is an option and drivers do not have to use this option, but it is there if you want it. It is definitely a safer option.
